September 12th Update




I'm sure most of us found ourselves reflecting yesterday, back to the events of 9/11/01. Its hard to believe its been seven years. I'm sure none of us can forget where we were that fateful day. It was a defining event, that changed our country forever.






Over 2000 years ago, a defining event occurred that changed the world forever. Jesus Christ willingly sacrificed himself on Calvary, to be the sacrifice and atonement for our sins. In one act of love and scarifice, when He gave up the spirit, it was done and He declared, "It is finished". Hallelujah !

Today we see that spirit working in the lives of the girls at Agape. As they yield to it, God is transforming lives and setting them free ! It is work that we cannot accomplish, as humans, but is only possible through the power and authoritity of the cross.
